The Blood and Bodily Fluid Cleanup Processes used by PuroClean of Kelowna

We use a variety of techniques when dealing with biohazard cleanups. All of these include wearing protective clothing such as impermeable suits, masks, and, in some circumstances, a full hazmat suit. Our team knows how to clean up the contaminated space safely, professionally, and thoroughly.

The first step is containment. We isolate anything potentially contaminated, so we don’t create an even bigger mess. This process is often called a secondary containment system or any control measure used to stop contamination from leaving a specified area.

Our technicians remove biohazardous materials from all surfaces using specialized equipment such as a wet/dry vacuum which minimizes direct human contact with material destined for disposal while also reducing cross-contamination. If any porous surfaces have been compromised, our team uses an enzymatic cleaner that breaks down organic matter into its base elements, making it easier to dispose of.

If any stains or odours remain after the cleanup, we will follow up with an antimicrobial fogger. This kills bacteria and viruses at their source without bleaching or scrubbing anything! We then bag and dispose of all remaining materials as hazardous waste.
